The call.

Emery Pov;

"Emery, come down here this instant!" My father's stern voice called from downstairs. Welp.

I hurried down and there he was. My mother sat on his right hand, she was crying. "Father?" I couldn't help feeling scared. "Come here." he looked me dead in the eyes. I walked over to him when he grabbed my wrist and pulled me into his room. The tears started pouring as I looked back at my mom, "Don't fight it hon" she said her eyes glistening with tears. He shut the door and locked it.

He threw me onto the bed and looked at me with lustful but angry eyes taking off his shirt and his belt following quickly after. "So now I have to go on the internet to see my daughter whoring around in my house with those guys, whom she wasn't aloud to even meet!" he started hitting me with his belt out of pure anger, he's been waiting to torture me again, "did you sleep with them!?", "No! I promise I didn't" I was full on  sobbing while I screamed in pain. "Liar! You are going to show me what you did with them."

I was only in my underwear now, begging him to stop. He moved my briefs to the side and aligned himself to my entrance. Before I could stop myself I kneeled him in the balls and he fell to the ground. I grabbed my dress and my bag and my made my way out of the room as fast as I could. The last thing I heard was my father yelling "I'll find you" before I ran out of the house and went to my car.

I didn't know where to go so I went to the only place I could think of.
A abandoned parking lot.

I grabbed my phone and went to Colby's contact. I called him him and it rang 2 times before he answered, it was 4 in the morning so I didn't expect him to answer so soon, "hello?" I couldn't stop the tears but I couldn't answer, so I declined and called James but it didn't feel the same, "Hey Em, are you okay?" I could tell he was still fast asleep until he heard me crying, that definitely woke him up.

I told him everything about what happened, well everything except what happened to my dad. I remixed the story a bit, I wasn't going to explain to him why my dad did it and why I was so used to it.

He helped me book a ticket to La for the next day and I have to say although I was thankful for James and I really started to like him but I can't get Colby out of my mind. I have to talk to him about us because me and James are really starting to get serious.

I'm almost at the airport and all I could worry about was my dad. Hopefully he wouldn't find me in La.
